Performance Benefits

The Mercury Mirage Plus 3-Blade Propeller is a legend among those who demand speed and precision. From the first press of the throttle, it delivers instant lift and acceleration that feels confident and powerful. The prop bites firmly, pulling your boat onto plane with ease and holding steady as speed builds.

Once you’re cruising, the Mirage Plus shows its real strength — balance. Every turn feels smooth and predictable. The boat tracks straight and true, even through chop or wake. You can feel the control in your hands, that surefooted stability that lets you drive with confidence instead of constant correction.

That precision comes from Mercury’s exclusive X7 stainless steel alloy, a proprietary metal that’s 30% stronger than traditional stainless. It doesn’t flex or distort under pressure, keeping your pitch consistent and your performance sharp run after run. Add in the Performance Vent System (PVS) — which lets you fine-tune your hole shot by adjusting vent plugs — and you’ve got a prop that adapts to your boat, your load, and your style. Whether you’re pulling riders, chasing top speed, or just enjoying a calm cruise, it’s built to perform exactly how you want it to.
